- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “One main customer overstocked in 2021 and 2022, and no sales have arisen in the current period to 30 June 2025.”
- “The general cost of living crisis which affects the whole economy has had an impact on climbing sales, although Treecare sales have remained steady.”
- “The loss of a material customer has also affected sales, and although these sales were to be replaced by a new customer, a design delay of a new harness by nearly 12 months resulted that sales relating to this product did not start until 2025.”
- “The design of a new harness has now been launched and resulting sales commenced in 2025.”
